MyVRSpot is the most innovative way to connect students and educators with true Web 2.0 technology. This web-based environment provides students with a hosted web space (webspot) to upload their videos, audio files, pictures, and text content, allowing them to become “push button” publishers and to manage their online presence. This system encourages students, teachers, and administrators to upload and publish content to their webspot, allowing others in the district to utilize the published content for other educational purposes. MyVRSpot provides the hosting of the multimedia, the hosted webspot, and all pages are protected with username and password credentials that are required to access all student data.
From student-created videos giving book reviews, demonstrating science experiments, or explaining a math formula, to uploading videos of teachers' daily lessons in support of best practices, MyVRSpot will become your district's greatest online resource for both students and educators that they will use on a daily basis.

Teachers
 I am collaborating with our Language Art teachers for students to create “book trailers” and “podcasting” book talks. We have also used the flip video camera for Poetry Cafés and Wax Museums. Students and teachers are thrilled with the unlimited capabilities of how they can use technology to share projects through social networking using MYVRSpot. Uploading the videos is so easy and user friendly! What a great tool to incorporate 21st century learning in our schools.
Jenney Crenshaw, Cane Creek Middle School
My VRSpot has provided my students the opportunity to be active, engaged learners. It is safe and so easy to use. Anytime a teacher can bring technology into instruction and maintain the integrity of the curriculum, you have a win-win. The students are excited and learning. You've made my job easier. Thanks.

 I think it will be something different we can try to spice up language arts. It will also help us with internet skills and being safe with personal information. We can only invite people that we want to be our buddies. It is very interesting.
This site is cool. I can upload the stuff that we record in class on our Flip cameras.
I love this!!!
